C3)t JBatlg )icd2tmt TUESDAY MORNING. Of 1874. Information Wanted. New Yerk Tribune. 1 Tbe day after the assembling of CoBjtreeB, iecemoer, 1874, rvel-logg's counsel.

Mr. Billings, wrote to hia Dear Governor about the chance of getting Pinehback admitted to the United States Senate a vital point ior toe usnroation. cause it iavolved the recognition of we jveiiogg legislature. "1 had an interview," he says, "with Morton and the Attorney General, and submitted them the alternative to examine uiancnard or to go entirely on the decisions of the Supreme Court. Williams had no doubt.

The examination of Blanchard might turn out uauiy. my own opinion is 10 put it on tne supreme uourt decisions." The. Supreme Court here spoken of. is af course that of the State of Louisiana. The Blanchard whose examination Mr.

Williams was afraid might dam-. ago liia own side was the State Regis-, ter of Voter, appointed by Warmoth in 1870. In September, 1873, having gono over to the Kellogg side, he made an affidavit describing fraud committed under his supervision in the election of 1872. for the purpose of giving the control of the State to' tne uBiomsts, witn wbom ne was then in full sympathy. Hi evidence or confession was printed in a pamphlet, but for some reason which Williams and Billings at any rate seem to' have understood the Kellogg party have never made much use of it.

We now fiad in Mr. check-book- traces of sums of money paid to this Blanchard, after ho turned State's evidence. November 26, 1873, th-re is a check for $100. March 17.1S74, there is a check for January 15 and February 10, there are checks to the cashier of the Louisiana National Bank, to meet drafts of Blanchard, for amounts not stated. Whether Mr.

Blanchard also got any part of the numerous payments made to Packard and others we only conjecture. But we hare no heconld be subjected to a kui us investigation that the exam-; iuatiou would turn out badly.7; A Good Place to Begin. fNew York Tribune Not long ago a startling and rumor came from Washing-xua that Gen. Grant was preparmg to make one step toward the recognition of the South by turning out atoum-ter of Federal officials who have dis- themselves and the parly by their scandalous implication in the corrupt ions of Southern politics. It would indeed have been a long step toward reform.

Kellogg woulcfhave been impossible except for Casey and Packaid. Mopes would never have flourished but for the support which he could command at Washington. If there could be a clean sweep among the Collectors' and Marshals7 offices of some of the reconstructed States and the vacated places could be tilled by honest, industrious and compe- tent men, who would attend to their business, and allow the voters to manage the politics of the State without impertinent interference, we should soon notice an astonishing improvement. The President has done nothing in this direction jet bnt it seems to us that he has iust now a capital chance to begin. If there is any one person almost equally responsible with the Pre6iaont and the Attorney General for the disgraceful condition of Louisiana, it is United States Marshal Packaid.

Mr. Packard had a great share in gettirg the President into the per a pe of recognizing Kellogg's pretensions and thus setting up the usurpation. the Attorney General and Judge Durell were in the Slot together for sending troops to few Orleans in advance of Durell's mignight order, and causing them to seize the State-House at two o'clock in the morning, before that famous mandate became known to anybody outside the ring. Packard (in the person of one of his deputies) stood at the door with the 6oldieri, and directed the repulse of the true Legislature and the admission of the fraudulent assemblage which Kellogg's canvassers, without any returns before them, declared to be elected on the evidence of newspaper reports, estimates and manufactured affidavits. now it turns that Mr.

Packard has been receiving money from the man he conspired to thrust into the Governorship. Mr. Kellogg's -check booW shows such payments as these: "March 3, Packard's draft, SfiOO; March 13, Packard's draft, $500; March 17, S. B. $500 April 3, S.

B. Packard, $500; April 30. S. B. Packard, $1000; April 30.

Packard, It makes no difference whether Mr. Packard took these comfortable little sums for himself or placed them where they would do most good. Iu either case his usefulness to the party must be so much impaired by the disclosure of' such transactions that we should think even Gen. Grant might dismiss him without a pang. Packard's Removal Demanded.

fct. Leal a Republican. It would be a curious illustration of the power of a single earnest patriotic man, who belongs to neither of the great parties and is disavowed by both, if Senator Schurz's demand for the removal of Marshal Packard, of Louisiana, were to be granted, and yet such a thing is possible. His denunciation of Packard's mischievous conduct is recognized as so Just that the most intelligent Republican journals of the North join in the demand for his removal. There is hardly a single newspaper in the North that dares defend the officious Marshal who has caused so much of the trouble in Louisiana, and if he were dismissed from office the whole country would applaud the The President would not like to dismiss Packard at the demand of Schurz, whom he lately regarded, and, perhaps, still regards as his enemy but the Senator has treated the.

President so fairly in his speech, and has handled the whole Louisiana question with such discretion as to have' evoked a public opinion at the North which the President may not be able to withstand. If he refuses to remove Packard, he may find himself held accountable for Packard's conduct. An Alabama editor closes an article on be corn crop with tbe remark: We have on exhibition in nnr sanotnm a pair of magnificent ears." The Storm at Charleston, S. C. SCENES AND INCIDENTS.

The Charleston News and Courier, of the 29th gives a a most graphic account of the storm which swept through that city on the 28th The telegraph has already partly summed up the devastation of the huricane, but the Courier's narrative is so full of interesting details that we cannot forbear reproduction. We take up the story midway At the wharf of the Sullivan Island steamers the waves washed clear over the wood work, and the anxious crowd who had gathered there to her tidings from friends on the island were iairly driven back by the blinding rain and rising waters. East Bay and Calhoun tree 8 were flooded with water to such a depth as to i I FLOAT THE CARS of the Enterprise Kailway from the track. All the wharves above Market stre et were more or less damaged, but three below that point suffered the tnoet. At VaDderhorst wharf, a large tlat loaded with phosphate rock, intended for the feiiip Border paited the fattening and was blown into three sloops in the dock, sinking them almost immediately.

The lLit was then lifted by the waves and thrown transversely across the dock, making a com pie bridge between tlfe two piers. 'Die Biitish bark Beltisto, which had lately ai lived from Liverpool, and was anchored in the stream, was blown from her mooriugs, despite two heavy anchors held by 6eventy-five and forty-five feec of iron chain, and dragged into the dock between and Atlantic wharf. The wharf on the extreme southern limit-of the e.istern water front was completely washed away, and the piers immediately adjoining on tho uoith, at which were 'moored the steamers City Point and Dictator, were also badly damaged. THE BATHING-HOUSE. At 9 o'clock a messenger arrived the main guard house -with the new.

that the frail bridge, leading to tha bathing-houpe, had been swept away, and that the bathing-house itself, with its owner and, his family who were in it, were in imminent peril. The news spread like wildfire, and in jsbort time hundreds of excited spectators had assembled on the battery to satisfy themselves as to the truth of the report. The sale at this time, iu clock, was absolutely ous: a terrible hurricane, hi huge masses of water over the battery and rollin tr breakers hieh alonsr the south walk. Th den was fully four feet nnder water, presenting a clear sheet from East to South Battery. But all eyes (were turned from the scene of devastation immediately around them toatooint of more thrilling interest.

The bath ing bouse, cutoff, as it was. from all communication with the laud, was rocking on its foundation, and it was at once seen that every effort must be made, witnout delay, to rescue the unfortunate inmates. These were Mr. McManmon, his wife and two children, and a young man who occu pied one or tne rooms. I A BRAVE ATTEMPT.

The first attempt was made! by a number of colored fishermen, and folicemen, headed by Mr. H.jNott 'arker; the stroke oar of thei Pal' met to boat crew. A yawl boat was procured from the numbers usually moored around Moreland's wharf, and with twenty-five or thirty volunteers the leaders dragged the long and anxiously looked for boat through the water, which was quite sufficient to float ber across the garden to the spot immediately opposite the bathing-house on the south walk. The biidge in its full had torn away a considerable portion of the masonry, and the sea soon iucreased the rtnt to a wide gap. Tbis was deemed a favorable point from which to launch the craft, and so, with the hundreds of hands which were now ready and willing to assist ths daring spirits in their perilous venture, the boat was launched at an opportune moment, and five men, two policemen, two fishermen aud Mr.

II. N. Parker, threw. themselves into her, seized the oars and made strenuous t-rl'orts to head for the bathing-houne. A line had been attached to the stern id' the yawl to draw her iu to the shore in case of swamping.

This piece of precaution was the cause of THE FIRST FAII.UIIE, for the men intrusted with the rope, when it was seen by every one that the boat could not be managed with the strain of the line on her Btern, refused to let go until the boat had been borne too far to leeward and nothing was left for the crew but to keep her bow to the breakers aid let her drift on with the surf and current. They effected a landing nnder the lee of the Battery wall without serious difficulty. The situation now began to look desperate. The bathing house trembled at every fresh gust of wind, and the mountain-like billows were hurled as so many battering-rams with merciless rapidity against the crumbling foundation. Previous to this the little tug Relief had hove in sight, and her captain nmde heroic efforts to rescue the inmates of the rapidly falllntr liouse.

The little vessel breaste I the storm gallantly, pitching and rolling in the heavy sea to an alarming extent, and every time she made an attempt to round to the gale she was mercilessly beated back, and in a short time she faded from sight, like a phantom ship, in the mist and rain, diiven up the river at a frightful xpeed. The failure of the tug to relieve the inmates of the house and the fruitless effort of the yawl boat crew tended to increase to a fearful pitch the excitement of the crowd. An unusually heavy blast of wind, together with an enormous wave at this time, stove in the rear portion of the doomed house. The shattered timbers swayed hesitatingly for a moment and then came down with a crash, strewing the waters far and wide with the debris. FEARFUL SITUATION.

1 he inmates who had remained remarkably calm and quiet np to this time now showed unmistakable signs of alarm. Airs. McManmon with her two little children presented a heartrending sight as they stood at the open window with arms outstretched tupplicating that relief which it seemed the crowd was powerless to. terder- The next effort that was made to heave a line across by means of which the family might be dragged attnoie but this too proved unavailing, arid the lead hurled by an arm inured to the task was blown aside hke feather by the angry wind. Ihe house now rose and sank with furi drlins: high breast a car- every swell, and every one looked with straining eyes, momentarily ex pecting to see it swept away into tbe boiling waters.

The crowd and persons, and it will give an idea of the terrible interest that prevailed, when it is recollected that the waves were rolling knee deep over the battery walks. The rain, driven by a perfect hurricane, came down in torrents, bruising the hands and face like hailstones, and it was with greatdifficulty that the strongest could stand up against the gale. Yet, in spite of all tnis, toe crowd constantly grew lar eer. and men avowed themselves wil ling and ready to swim the seething cliasm, but tins nsK was not thought expedient as yet. Another boat launch was proposed, and a boat belonging to Mr.

Vanderhorst, just refitted and in thorough repair, was soon, by the aid of a large crowd of volunteers, floated across the garden to the point opposite the bathinghouse from which the previous attempt had been made. The men who offered themselves for the risky voyage were Mesrs. H. Nott Parker. John Rooer.

D. Todd, a colored policeman, and a nenernian name unknown. Tne boat was launched, and the brave men threw themselves into the seething waves to watch for a favorable moment to board. Two had succeeded in getting in, when a tremendous swell striking the boat on the broadside immediately filled her with, water and the next. moment she! was seen I BOTTOM UPWARD half crushed, being borne 6wiftly leeward on the crest of a wave.

At first ot a sign could be seen of the erew, bnt in a moment more a bead appeared, then another, and as the next wave, foaming angrily, came rushing along, it Uore the two colored men and Todd within reach of the hundreds of hands, umbrellas 1 and sticks which were eaeerlv held forth for their rescue. In another momen these three were drawn dripping and half suffocated from the water, i Mr. John Roper rose next, and appealed to be laboring to keep nimselt up. A stream of blood from his head soon explained that he was hurt and proba- viy nait stunned, ine next wave fortunately bore him within reach of aa umbrella handle, and, by the aid of this, he was soon dragged on Mr. Parker was now.

the only remaining one, and all feyes weic rKi'jr ujLfu upon uie water watching for his appearance. After what seemed an age of suspense, he rose, and with a vigorous stroke he, too, managed to got close enough to catch a friendlv hand. The crowd. who had hardly seemed to breathe dunng this period, were now relieved of one anxiety, and again turned their attention to the totter ing house. James McManmon! the son ot the proprietor of the bathing-house, came rushing to tne scene half frantic; and declaring that he would swim across to save his mother, He was prevented from dome this only by force.

At this moment, however, ANOTHER HERO appeared upon the scene, a young man by the name of Harry Hansen. of the United Sra' buoy tender. Without the least hesitation or fear of. failure he fastened a line to his waist aud jumped over into tno flood, aud. breasting the waves, he gallantly, battled his way across, and safely reached the door of the bathing- A rope was then pulled over.

together with a number of life pre-iejveis, and the brave fellow started a return tup with one of tho chil dren in Ms amis. This flip was also made with success, and the little girl, barring the ouantity of salt water ihe had swallowed, was none the koise lor it. The wind now, as it magic, JnJiea to almost a calm, iubt at tills auepicous moment two boats, were launched, manned tid successfully landed at the bath us-bouse. SAVED. All of the inmates were now safelv liuitht over, amid the cheers of the onltitude.

With equal suddenness lie wind started up again, but now rom a quaiter directly opposite to hat Ironi which it had been blowinir. ktd for a half hour continued with earful force. Tbis sudden autre nought down' the left wing of the lonse, and a few moments later the lght wing sank back, and settled tour or five feet under water. THE FTOKM SIGNALS.
